Dj Mr White, Earthen Sea, Black Fiction April 26, 2008

Earthen Sea is deep ambient drones, incorporating human voice and electronics.

Black Fiction were known as Acno not too long ago. Dan Munn on guitar, Mike Crosby on bass guitar and Al Hewitt on drums. They have amassed a following in Essex and London through their numerous live shows and progressive style.Their sound has always been raw, engaging and darkly melodic. With the addition of Jen Hardy's female vocal, the music retains the same, reflective tone but strikes a brighter, punchier feel. The Chapin Sisters are three girls from New York whose musical style blends traditional folk harmonies with an Indie rock/Emo moodiness (think Crosby Stills and Nash meets Cat Power.) Their lo-fi originals are gorgeous and melancholy, while their covers of Britney Spears "Toxic" and The Cure's "Boys Don't Cry" are haunting and strangely unfamiliar -- all Chapin Sisters music can be habit forming.
